Noisey front end??

Need some guidance here. I have a 1999, 2 wheel drive ranger with 106,000 miles. After about 50/60K My front end was always on the noisey side? Sounded like it had mud tires on it instead of just road tires. At 90,000 I had new tires & brakes put on it. They also replaced the wheel bearings and did a front end alignment. They said the wheel bearings where shot... After all this work there was NO noise. Truck ran great and was nice and quiet. Now 15,000 miles later it just got noisey again? What should I check? Could the wheel bearings be noisey? Need repacking? or could this be an alignment issue? Truck feels and drives fine. Just can't stand the noise....???
